Houston Tex March 13th 1868
Maj Gen John J Reynolds
General
Mr Charles Schmidt desires an appointment which I believe is at your disposal. I have known Mr Schmidt for nearly two years and can say that he is in every way worthy of your confidence. He has fine business capacity and is honest and industrious. I assure you he will give satisfaction in the position which he is asking.
Truly yours
JS Bachelder
